Brief Answer:
Appropriate treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
White creamy discharge can be due to either bacterial or fungal vaginal infection.
The treatment should be started only after the vaginal swab examination is done and exact pathogen is detected.
However, the treatment given is appropriate and is the blanket treatment for vaginal infection.
You will get relief in 5-7 days of treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
